Program size complexity for possibly infinite computations

We define a program size complexity function H∞ as a variant of the prefix-free Kolmogorov complexity, based on Turing monotone machines performing possibly unending computations. We consider definitions of randomness and triviality for sequences in {0, 1}ω relative to the H∞ complexity. We prove th...
